Ceremonial Stone Landscapes in Pennsylvania, Jim Wilson

Pennsylvania is rich in woodlands and wetlands peppered with prehistoric stonework. These Ceremonial Stone Landscapes are generally less well- known and have been generally less researched than those in New England and the Southeast. Nevertheless, many stone landscapes throughout the Keystone State are home to some of the largest, most beautifully constructed Manitou Hassannash in the Eastern Woodlands. An illustrated field trip to nine CSL sites in the Delaware and Susquehanna River basins of eastern PA, including the 2600-year-old Oley Hills Site in Berks County. And a look at the partnerships NEARA has initiated with academia and local and state agencies to research, protect and preserve Indigenous stone landscapes across the Commonwealth of PA. Jim Wilson is a recreation and conservation specialist for Northampton County Parks in Northampton County, PA and a charter member of the Watershed Coalition of the Lehigh Valley (WCLV). He has been an enthusiast of enigmatic stonework and stone landscapes for almost 25 years. Most recently, Jim has been working with his regional planning commission and the PA State Historic Preservation Office to protect and preserve these cultural landscape resources in the Lehigh Valley and across the Commonwealth. Jim serves on the steering committee for the March 14, 2023 Lehigh Valley Watershed Conference in Bethlehem, PA, which will include a track on Indigenous connections to water and watersheds, including CSLs.
